| I sincerely think that Kaori should just go away, she's an anchor for Kousei. Yes, if she didn't had any problems and were healthy as hell, she would have been a great development and a great character. In my humble opinion, I never liked her to begin with, and it's not because she has ALS or SCA or whatever she has, that I'm supposed to like her more. I don't. It may be harsh, but except for the thing where she might have helped Kousei get over his mother's death (which she actually didn't, he did it by himself) she's an anchor for him. I would have prefered a competition between Takeshi and Emi, it would have been better. But anyways, I'm just waiting for the time where she would become better and start doing music, for real, without "violence" towards Kousei or until she dies. Else they're dragging this serie just for her. |
| "want to commit double suicide with me?" |
 |
| The only question is "When?" :) |
 |
| Am I the only one who thinks that when Kaori said "Want to commit double suicide with me?" and the other lines before that.... she was just quoting it from the book that was shown and for sure was just saying it as a joke |

silverwalls said: i wish they'd just tell us what kaori's suffering from. i think at this point everyone is aware that she isn't well, and might die. My educated guess is Amyothrophic Lateral Sclerosis (remember the bucket challenge?) Ryuu_Terminator said: Words cannot express how amazed I am at this episode. It truly reflects the change in the show from the meaning of music to the meaning of our relationships. What was an enjoyable show about music has evolved into something far more profound and beautiful. Kousei will have to deal with losing the person who brought music back into his life in a way akin to the loss of his mother, so feels are promised in future episodes. If the series continues with such brilliant episodes like this one, it will definitely end up as my anime of the season. Amazing how wildly opinions can differ. I thought it was the worst episode so far. Very bipolar in how it mixes humor and heavy drama, and very poorly. |

rsc-pl said: ImTheGuy said: Woah that last line. No words.. "Want to commit double suicide with me?" I hope that it was only a joke... :| It has to be a quote from the book she is reading 8/8 m8. |
| Why does this Anime do this? Why does it toy with my fragile heart so much? This Anime made me into a masochist... ;-; 10/10 ep ;-; |
 |
| I never knew that this anime would end like this.............. |
 |
| Nagi best girl. Arima being completely oblivious to Kaori's advances, I call bull on the "you're just a substitute" act. She doesn't want Watari, she wants Kousei. She's got too many things on her plate to admit it though. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| nice episode!!! feel trip starts now. |
| Ahhh that ending :'( |
| If they end it like this it'll actually be not-bad |

Some people just like drama for dramas sake. Honestly this is around where I stopped losing interest in the manga and stopped following it particularly closely because it kind of stops focusing on the music aspect and just drags out this Kaori is dying storyline so badly and for all the drama it can possibly muster. Honestly it has some interesting bits and potential but none of them that it really capitalizes all that well on and the way the anime just forever overblows the drama as much as possible kind of brings out some of the mangas more annoying tendencies. Again though like I said some people are into that sort of thing and the drama for dramas sake, I just found it overwrought. |
| Ahhh no ... that ending :( A suicide is committing the final act so maybe the double suicide means she wants to do a final performance together? |

Again though like I said some people are into that sort of thing and the drama for dramas sake, I just found it overwrought. We think the same thing. They could just have made it a lot more quickly, whatever's gonna happen next. I haven't read the manga, so I don't know (I can only guess) but if they're going to drag this out, this Kaori dying thing, it's going to lose any interest. Hell, the manga isn't about that, at least, that's the impression I got in the beginning. |
| I guess she's reciting one of those books or something. Either that or she's implying something else. After all, I don't see her seriously thinking about double suicide... |
| For those who seek perfection, there can be no rest on this side of the grave. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. |
| i though that this episode will bring revelations but it was a good episode after all so not upset. |

| RIP in peace Kaori. Kousei x Nagi OTP |
| Commit double suicide? I think she means it somewhat but she'll pretend it's a joke after seeing Arima's reaction. |
 |
| Oh Kaori not having her bag meant that she isn't coming to school anymore, death flag imminet. Relationshipwise, I begining to think that Nagi could be Kaori's replacement. OMG, Kaori is staring to act like Kosei's mom. |
| While Arima is gradually glowing with bright colors, Kaori the one who repainted Arima's life is losing hers. I like how this show progresses its characters and I know whats going to happen next but I don't want it to happen... Either way I have my tears stacked.  Everything is going to be daijobu |
 |
| Jesus, just die already. This show tries to invoke feels but it really doesn't know how (unless you're an emotional teenager or something, the type that actually got sad from Clannad). Drama and tragedy is something that anime only rarely gets right, and most of the time it's in shows that aren't even tragedy-centric. And that last line.. don't even get me started. That was cheap shock value through-and-through. |
Chelizzle said: Hmm I don't know why,but I don't really care that she's going to die.But I guess that's just me. I'm feeling bad, but I don't really care too. .-. She's the character that I like the least. I don't know why, I couldn't really relate to the characters from this anime, so I don't have a real attachment to them. But I still feel really bad for Kaori, and even if she isn't my favorite character I could shed a tear while seeing her suffering so much. And it's so sad for Arima too! He lost his mother and now he's going to loose the girl he likes? This is so unfair! Q_Q I like how they changed her appearance. Her lips are purple and her hair isn't colourful as before. When we see her, she's almost completely white D: "Want to commit double suicide with me?" What the.......? |
| You can see her suffering. Her skin doesn't look healthy, too. I like Kaori, but it seems that there won't be a happy ending. Let's see how the other episodes will be... |
 |
| For a moment I got confused with the beginning, I thought that that it was the first time when she got sick, but it was the continuation from the previous episode, these flashbacks weren't really helpful. When will she tell the truth. |
Silver4000 said: For a moment I got confused with the beginning, I thought that that it was the first time when she got sick, but it was the continuation from the previous episode, these flashbacks weren't really helpful. That wasn't continuation from the final scene of episode 15 (which occurred in the hospital), that was a flashback to the incident that put her in the hospital this time (the calendar still has the gala date on it not crossed off, and she is holding the piece that they were about to perform). |
| uhhh I really love this show but some parts off this episode were totally off, the scene on the bike where she started crying was totally off and they just threw it in there without any notice. and the line at the end was completely unexpected and completely unlike her character. I think this show is still absolutely amazing but I think next episode will determine a lot about where the show will go in the end. |
| I noticed the first time Kaori was shown in the hospital that she looked really pale and also lost some colour in her lips. But I kinda saw the current developments coming, the show was clearly pushing it this way. Not a bad episode though. |
| Okay the last sentence she said threw me off But I think she is just quoting from the book. Kaori skin also looks much paler compared to her first episode self. |
 |
| The kids in this anime act so mature.... I like that [spoiler]  [spoiler] |
| Hate Keeps me warm |
| The quotes from the subs in her speech near the end made it seem like she was just citing someone or something else but still, that was a really weird way to end the episode... On the plus side, way to go Kousei, you've beaten Watari in that one!!! |
| Hating to have so much drama |
| "The weak get washed away by the tides of fate...The strong drink it up."-Godot |
| The drama in this anime is ridiculous even though Kaori quote from that book. |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| "Want to commit double suicide with me?" Ooh this should be interesting. :D |
| *insert cringey anime reference here* |
| 6 episodes left...I feel like they need to have Kaori's death take place within the next couple episodes, otherwise they won't be able to properly show Kosei moving from grief to acceptance of her death before the series ends. |
| I knew they were siblings! =_= That last line, though. 0.0 |
 |
| I forgot that Aiza is Takeshi's last name, I didn't expect them to be siblings. That was a clichè. |
| Seeing that last line in quotes, it's probably not serious... probably. |
